Devastation
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Devastated being
Has lost her way
Broken and bruised
Scarred beyond words
Feel so alone
With my secret that i've kept so hidden
Sep 2014 · 270
Searching for solidity
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Cutting is my escape
From this ****** up world
Hurt more times than one
Heartbroken time and time again
Starved from familiar faces
Scarred from life
Malnourished from human interaction
No one wants to be around
The girl who cuts herself
"Eww gross" you say
None taken, i know
I'm gross
So much more
I'm disgusting
That's why people never stay
They leave before
I get to explain
People always leave
Starving for solid friends
I need my sister here
I want my original friends here
Much more solid
Alone here
Second guessing
The choices i've made
People i've met
Tears roll down my face
Another one leaves
I need nourishment from the ones
Who love me the most
Sep 2014 · 127
Love me
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Love me
Love me not
I don't blame you
I would say no too
Sep 2014 · 168
All gone
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
All alone
People have left me
Faster than i could speak
I'm scared
I'll never find someone like you
So far no luck
Please remember me
As much as i will remember you

Anesthesia
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Numbing from the sting of life
Neosporin is the razor
The band aid is blood
Anesthesia is working
Numbing from the loneliness of life
Sep 2014 · 213
Nightingale
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Please be my nightingale
Need to know
That you'll always be there
Nothing can replace
You and me
I'll think of you everyday
Even though i understand
If you never think of me
Sep 2014 · 483
Thin commandments
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
You're my god
Obey as if i'll go to hell
I follow you like the ten commandments
Except yours is different
The thin commandments
Is what i follow
Sep 2014 · 182
You say
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
It's not that bad, you say
You have no idea what i endure
Every day in my own mind
Tidal waves pulling me under
I could be totally lost at sea
You would never know
Because i'm not physically deteriorating
But i was mentally gone
So long ago
It's amazing what you can hide
Just by putting on a smile
Pretty soon
My physical body
Will catch up just wait and see
Now they're on their way
To the last part that makes me human
Uh, oh to late she's dead
"We had no idea" they said
You could have saved her
You were too naive to see
Demons always start at the mind
Then send more
Draining the life
Flooding with poison
Life is a lesson
A mental illness doesn't have to be physical
Sep 2014 · 186
Scars
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Sting once
Sting twice
Bleed once
Bleed forever
Lovely scars
Sep 2014 · 138
Think before you speak
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Funny thing you said
Isn't so funny anymore
Now i have a secret
That no one can find
It's written all over my body
Written in red
That's still pretty funny isn't it?
All love is broken
Hearts are broken
Love is so hard to find
Now it's all gone
Sep 2014 · 183
Love
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Love
Love is like a sweet flower
******* locked together
Together now
But not forever
Love is sweet
Love is kind
Love a unique emotion
We often long to find
Sep 2014 · 514
Anxiety
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Shaking
Can't breathe
Chest tightening
Heart pounding
Can't speak
Can't move
This is anxiety

Battlefield
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Life is like a battlefield
You either win
Or you die trying
To hold your head above water
When all you want to do is drown
Sep 2014 · 749
Lovatics
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Neon lights
Lovatic's all around
The fandom is unbroken
Because of Demi
Sep 2014 · 103
You think you know me
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Did i say you wanted your opinion?
No, leave me alone
You know my name
Not my story
Sep 2014 · 199
Spring
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Flowers blooming
Cool breeze
This is spring
Sep 2014 · 169
Artist
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Art is a way of expressing
What you can't in words
Disguised in black for demons
Red for blood
Too much to say
Drawing is easier
Easier to disguise
Sep 2014 · 213
This is summer
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Summer
Hot concrete
Ice cream drips off the child's arm
Water splashing
She hides her demons
With a smile
Sep 2014 · 395
Empty
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Empty soul
Empty soul
Broken heart
Tears fall
Can't save her
She's already dead
Sep 2014 · 227
Winter
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Winter is cold leaves
Falling off the tree
Warm gloves
and children playing
I'm inside destroying
My ragged broken soul
Sep 2014 · 188
Savior
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Razor crying out for blood
Comfort, like the comfort of a baby blanket
Tears roll down her emaciated cheeks
Turning to her razor
She has no friends left
Sep 2014 · 161
Can't do this
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Nothing is working here
I don't understand
My mind being controlled by demons
I can't take it anymore
Sep 2014 · 177
Which do i choose?
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Heaven or hell?
Which do i choose?
I'm not sure i believe
Whatever that means
God is dead
While the devil is wide awake
Sep 2014 · 194
Devil within me
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
***** toxins
My sins are gone
The devil
Doesn't want anything in me
So i can slowly die
and go with him
Sep 2014 · 167
Stay
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
"Go away"
She cries
When she says that
She wants you desperately
To stay
To comfort her
And say everything will be okay
Sep 2014 · 130
Save me
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
I don't know what to say
My words are controlled
By a much stronger being than me
This is not me, you see
This is the devil
Slowly taking me away
Sep 2014 · 126
Questions
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Who's worthy?
Who's loving?
Who's trusting?
No one exactly
Why would i open my secret
World up to you?
You think it's fake
Can i keep going?
It's not like you would notice
Sep 2014 · 170
My Salvation
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Lovely salvation
Broken into pieces
Control and security slowly losing it's shine
Don't take away the only thing
That keeps me breathing
Sep 2014 · 174
This isn't me
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Your warm embrace
Words wrapped up in a blanket
Trying to not let them enter the world
Secrets and lies
That's me
She doesn't mean it
This isn't her
Trust me
She's not this kind of girl
Sep 2014 · 1.2k
I need you
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Don't leave
I need you
Can't you see
I'm broken and scarred
I need to feel alive
Help me
Thank you
I knew you'd always be there
Sep 2014 · 390
Secret
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Losing control
Who are you trying to take away my secret?
It's more than a secret
It's my world
My salvation
My sanctuary
That is mine and mine only
*******
This is my caged and destructive world
Leave us alone
We don't want you here
Sep 2014 · 184
My brain
Murphy Lynne Sep 2014
Confusing brain i live in
I can't explain
I need your help
To help me understand
Scared of myself
Evil self
Angel who is a blessing of a soul
Somehow my evil self takes over
My angel soul
Is nowhere to be found
Aug 2014 · 320
Can't decide
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
I want you here
I hate you
Go away
Undeserving soul
I want you here
to save me
From my demons
I hate you
Don't leave me
I feel like i can't breathe
I'm pieces
You complete me
Aug 2014 · 153
Finding my place
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Burned bridges
A broken heart
Tired of fake people
Who are uninvited
Go away
You don't deserve me
I'm going to find my way again
I'm gonna love you
Like i don't need saving
Tonight, tonight i'm letting go
Aug 2014 · 689
Invisible
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
I'm invisible
Wanting my light to shine
As soon as someone
Has access to my light
I suddenly want to be invisible
Did you forget everything we ever had?
Don't forget
Please don't forget about me
Aug 2014 · 242
Lightweight
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
I'm a lightweight
Don't say a word
I know you despite my whole being
For no reason in fact
I'm a lightweight
Better be careful what you say
Keep me from falling apart
Aug 2014 · 228
Can't escape
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Warm beach
Cold ice
Voices still there
All day
All night
Can't escape
The voice where my demons lie
Can't escape Ana and Mia
Where we are glued together
Like two pieces of a broken heart
Aug 2014 · 406
Second guessing
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Can't explain
What i want to say
Instead of speaking
To the voice in my head
That say don't
You're words aren't important
Aug 2014 · 204
Beyond saving
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Really alone
So scared
Help me please
Oh wait, i'm beyond saving
Aug 2014 · 127
Stop
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Stop i said
Trying to understand
You will never get into my head
You will never know the real me
Murphy is nowhere to be found
My demons are awake though
Waiting to take another
Innocent beings soul
Aug 2014 · 303
Broken soul
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
My soul has been ripped
Out of my chest
My demons have taken over
Cold blade
Silent ears
Empty soul
Aug 2014 · 901
Differences
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Hot and cold
Fire and ice
Heaven and hell
Self-destruction and happiness
Totally conflicted
Between life and death
Aug 2014 · 765
Unbearable
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Unbearable pain
Unbearable emotions
This is where the blade comes in
Draining the toxins
Slowly but surely
Now feel numb
Like when you're put under the surgery
Aug 2014 · 176
Dark eyes
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
My eyes say it all
When there's an unmistakable
Smile on my face
Faking a smile
So no one asks questions
Aug 2014 · 269
My warrior
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Demi lovato
My lover
She keeps me breathing
Just knowing i get to see her
in 40 days
from the Neon lights tour and i'm going to kansas city in 3 weeks to see her again!

Drowning
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Drowning, drowning
Faster, faster
Lost under the sea
Now i'm emaciated
Under the sea
Too late i say
You're too late to save me
Aug 2014 · 218
Gripping to life
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Dominated by my own mind
Scarred and poisoned
No way to make it go away
Somehow clinging to the brink of life
While being pulled down
By my demons
Just waiting for the right second
When i slowly lose my grip to existence
When i get to tired
I'm holding onto life
As if i was hanging off a cliff
While the consequences are much greater
A mountain lion is wanting his needs to be met
Which do i choose?
Satisfy my demons or satisfy myself?
I'm still hanging on
Until i see a person rescuing me
From the pain and anxiety
That my demons have slowly crept into my brain
Or until the mountain lion
Finally loosens his death grip on me
Aug 2014 · 715
Disgusting truth
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Drowning in guilt once i realized what i've done
All those wrappers around me
Have no idea how they got there
Then i realize what those wrappers
Were filled with
Terrified and disgusted with myself
I'm so fat
I have no self-control
Aug 2014 · 115
No one
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
No one understands me
That's why i love people
Who are the same species
Been lost and lonely for so long
I just want to be with people
Who understand
My way of coping
With this crazy world
Aug 2014 · 230
My drug
Murphy Lynne Aug 2014
Cutting is my drug
Bigger and better
Than any illegal drug
Better to feel high
Like you're high on drugs
Than deal with your emotions
